Charity begins at home

To the editor,

Congratulations to the Ecology Action Centre for achieving the sustainable renovation of an older building here in Halifax ("Green roots," July 27). It sure gives others leadership to follow suit. Thanks to The Coast for profiling such a practical community service. It's quite amazing to think of the thousands of volunteer hours that went into the project—I think it says something positive about Halifax and Nova Scotia.

I know great generosity has been shown for this project so far, but apparently EAC still needs to raise $100,000 to complete it. Let's go, Nova Scotia. We can do it!
